The biggest choice on today's ballots in PA is whether to retain 3 Democratic supreme court justices. The push to remake the court has been driven by billionaire Jeff Yass.

Trump bought the Argentina election by threatening to withhold U.S. funds unless his preferred candidate won. We can’t let the same playbook unfold here next week. Trump and his administration have already been making threats about the upcoming U.S. elections, and the warning signs are clear.

Looks as if Trump is saying no Democrat will be allowed to win another national election—and he will use the FBI, the DOJ, and the CIA to make sure of that. This is a full-scale attack on American democracy, and every Republican, CEO, and conservative mouthpiece who doesn't object is complicit.
Trump: "We can never let what happened in the 2020 election happen again. We just can't let that happen. I know Kash is working on it, everybody is working on it. And certainly Tulsi is working on it. We can't let that happen again to our country."

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

Here come state charges for Santos.
After Trump pardoned Manafort, NY legislature passed, and Cuomo signed, a law closing what became known as the "Manafort loophole"
Basically reverses NY's double jeopardy rule AND carves out an exception for anyone who received clemency from the president.

Also, it's notable how they got bailed out for years and years with the claim, "these are the people who feed us" when, no. These are the people growing commodity corn and soy for export, largely so they don't have to pay taxes on their large land holdings.
